   INTRO:  Aadd9/C - Aadd9 - Aadd9/C - Aadd9
           Em/G - Em - Em/G - Em
           Dadd9/F - Dadd9 - Dadd9/F - Dadd9
           Aadd9/C - Aadd9 - Em/G - Em - Em/G - Aadd9


                 Asus4          A
       I.  I see fire-breathing gods,
           Asus4     A
           enslaving gods,
           Dsus4     D
           forgiving gods
           Dsus4      D
           and saving gods
               Fmaj7                  E
           and ones who don't appear.
                 Asus4      A
           I see pillars of salt
                 Asus4    A            E      E7
           where three or more live in fear.


                      Aadd9/C     Aadd9    Am9    Aadd9
CHORUS A:  of all the gods on the loose,
                 Em/G       Em        Em7    Em
           which one do you choose?
                   Dadd9                 Dm9
           is he a blessing or a curse?
                       Aadd9/C   Aadd9
           did he make you
              Em/G  Em   Em/G   Dadd9/A   Dm9
           or just  the  re  -  verse?


 INSTRUMENTAL:  Aadd9/C - Aadd9 - Em/G - Em - Em/G - Aadd9


             Asus4  A
      II.  I saw by chance
             Asus4   A
           a hill of gloves.
             Dsus4   D
           a pile of hands
              Dsus4   D
           is what it was.
           Fmaj7                     E
           fingers point at the sky
                 Asus4    A
           where surgeons trade
               Asus4  A
           the other  cheek
                  E               E7
           for an eye for an eye,
               Asus4     A
           and amp - u - tees
           Asus4     A
           learn the sound
              E                  E7
           of one hand praying.


           ///// REPEAT CHORUS A /////


 INSTRUMENTAL:  Aadd9/C - Aadd9 - Am9 - Aadd9
                G6/E - E(no3rd) - G6/E - E(no3rd)
                Fmaj7(-5)/E - E(no3rd) - D#(+5-9) - D13/E
                Fmaj7(-5)/E - E(no3rd) - D#(+5-9) - D13/E
                Cmaj7/G - Aadd9 - G - Em - G - Dadd9/A


               Asus4  A
     III.  I'd go to  court
               Asus4   A
           and sue the gods
              Dsus4     D
           if I could afford
              Dsus4  D
           an honest judge.
               Fmaj7                  E
           but all the gods will say
                Asus4     A
           that they were victimized
           Asus  A           E    E7
           on      the ninth day.
                  Asus4      A
           but if god's everywhere,
           Asus4   A       E    E7
           he's in jail anyway.


          ///// REPEAT CHORUS A /////


                      Aadd9/C     Aadd9    Aadd9/C   Aadd9
CHORUS B:  of all the gods on the loose,
                 Em/G       Em        Em/G    Em
           which one do you choose?
                        Dadd9            Dm9
           soon it will all be clearer
                Aadd9/C  Aadd9  Em/G
           just who      is the maker
               Em  Em/G   Dadd9/A   Dm9    Dadd9
           and who is the mirror.
